So some of you may have picked up on a few hints, but Tom and I went on a whirlwind of a vacation last week. It was 10 days of relaxation, fun, family, friends, exploration, and exhaustion.

We began our vacation Friday the 4th of March with a flight down to Florida to visit my parents. We stayed there for a few days before flying up to Washington DC - somewhere I've never been but always wanted to go! Although we missed the cherry blossoms by mere days, we did meet up with my best friend, her husband, both of their brothers, and her husband's best friend. It was quite a group!

After a few days of sightseeing, food, and running, we drove back to Boston yesterday for a big dose of reality and cold weather!

I'm a little sore, a little tired, and swamped with stuff at work, but as I recover I'll post some more pictures and memories from the trip. In general things are going to be pretty busy for us over the next few months, so it was nice to be able to get away for a bit and have some fun.
